We arrived from Agrigento with high expectations for this pastry shop and café, drawn by its reputation. The experience was overall positive, although there were some areas for improvement.
Positives:
The reserved parking is convenient and appreciated. The coffee service was good, but the croissants had their ups and downs: the jam was delicious, but the dough seemed average—probably not homemade, or at least not convincing. The mini croissants we ordered later were very good, however. The quality-price ratio was fair: for what we consumed, we spent relatively little.
Areas for improvement:
The service had some issues. Upon arrival, my girlfriend took a free table with two chairs, but by the time she had time to browse the window, one chair had disappeared (probably taken by another customer). Left with only one chair, we asked if it was possible to dry one of the outside ones that had been soaked by the morning rain, but we were told it would still be damp. We decided to eat at the counter. Meanwhile, a table became available, and after asking permission, we were able to take a chair from there to complete our seating. Furthermore, since we already had croissants in hand from the counter, we sat down to enjoy them, but the coffee and latte macchiato arrived only after about 5-6 minutes, when we were almost finished with our croissants.
Conclusion:
Coming from Agrigento, we were perhaps expecting a little more in terms of quality, but the quality-price ratio is balanced for both the products and the service offered. A decent pastry shop, without any particular excellence, but honest overall.

I think it's one of the best pastry shops in the area... if not the best. If you're looking for a custom cake, trust them; you won't regret it, in fact, you'll be amazed. Imagination is their forte; they always manage to amaze. Not to mention the desserts, ice creams, and breakfasts... everything is always delicious and unique.

I'm very sorry I can't give it 5 stars. The desserts, indeed, deserve it. Courtesy, unfortunately, isn't very prevalent: aside from a few missed smiles at the reception (which, of course, is always nice), I was told today, August 15, 2025, not to buy many croissants for breakfast. I had asked for about ten, but I had to make do with a few croissants and other things (all appreciated, of course, but it wasn't what I, as a customer, had asked for). The reason? If I had bought them all, there wouldn't have been any left for other customers! I find it outrageous that they would treat a customer this way who, for one price, could buy an entire grocery store. I also find it unprofessional that, on the day of August 15th, they don't expect a larger crowd (someone returning from the beach and having breakfast, some buying a tray, seeing the croissants and salivating, or simply tourists wanting to enjoy something) and that they don't ensure a good supply. Not to mention the fact that, if they don't have enough croissants, the problem can't be the customer's. I didn't want to be rude, and, as I wrote, I settled for something else. And to be fair, the girl who served us followed her boss's instructions and even apologized after the joke. However, anyone else would have left everything as it was, perhaps deciding to give their money to someone more courteous towards the customer.
